  1. I think the company name should only be NERIT and the channels to be named ET1, ET2, and ET World. That way it keeps the nostalgia of ERT alive.
  2. I wonder if and when they'll launch a NERIT World?
  3. I noticed yesterday that ERT World has been reassigned back to channel 9830. On the current channel (9531), it states the official move as May 29. It's currently on both channels. I guess May 29 is probably the cut-off date for channel 9531. Why the move was made in the first place baffles me and it made no sense. Maybe it's something to give us to talk about (or me anyway) on this forum.
  4. I guess I'm the only one who wonders why Dish moved ERT to another channel. :mellow:
  5. I noticed this morning there was no longer a channel 9830 which is ERT World. I first checked the website and nothing was changed. Then I did a little channel surfing and found out ERT World has been moved to channel 9531. Why would they move 1 channel and keep all the other TV and radio channels grouped together? Unless they plan to move the other channels as well. Why didn't they announce it via scrolling before they made the move? Does anybody have any info on this matter?
  6. Just a friendly warning guys. The owners of Ellas TV are the same ones who kept moving Mega Cosmos around to multiple platforms here in the U.S. They are being sued by Directv and wouldn't be surprised if they pulled the plug on the service without warning. I mean, come on! $400 AUD for a box! Court cost expenses is where that money is going. :gr:
  7. People will never learn they've subscribed to HELL-AS-S :xxx: TV. :gr:
  8. On the ERT/Kontominas thread you said the EllasTV service was legit and here you say it's illegal. What's the truth? :huh: :unsure:
  9. Maybe a rep for Ellas TV will post on the forum and help you out. :LOL: :LOL: :LOL:
  10. You can watch it right on your tv with roku for freeYou can also use an HDMI cable from the computer to the tv if both have HDMI inputs. Then you maximize the screen on your computer.
  11. Skai is available for free online on their website when it is airing Greek programming. Goes offline when airing foreign programming. If you're interested, it comes back on at 10:00pm EST with a replay of a cooking show. At 10:30 there's a am newscast and at 11:00 is Proti Grammi with the 2 guys who used to be on NET. Skai tv link: Skai Happy viewing! :)
  12. Let's hope this soap opera, "Mega Cosmos Musical Platform Chairs", has ended its run. They screwed the omogenia big time. Glad I didn't follow them on Home2US. I knew it wasn't worth it. But forgive and forget I say. Mega, just don't do us like that again and get someone else to distribute your channel. GMG/Titan, Inc., whatever name they're going by, don't know squat.
  13. By the way. Anyone interested in EllasTV now, the so-called future? :LOL: :LOL: :LOL: :LOL: :LOL: :LOL: :LOL: :LOL: :LOL: :LOL: :LOL: :LOL: :LOL:
  14. Dish just updated their website. Mega is included in the Greek Elite package with the new price of $29.99. Remember 3 weeks ago I said that the price of the package would increase by $5. They knew Mega was coming back before they made the announcement on Facebook in mid-November. There was no way the price increase was because of Greek Cinema. Mega is also available a-la-carte for $19.99. Why more? ANT1 & ERT are $14.99 each a-la-carte. ANT1 has always been $14.99 since they debuted on C-band back in 1993. 3 cheers for them for keeping the price the same for almost 20 years. Mega $19.99? Mega kleftes if you asked me. Smart thing for everyone--get the Greek Elite package.
  15. Actually channel 9839. No info on Dish Network site yet. Wonder if it gets included in the Greek Elite package?
  16. I had suggested that too in a earlier post a few days ago. But like Grk101 said maybe they're just testing on that channel or what I think might happen is they might reshuffle everything a few months down the road. :)
  17. It makes sense of what both of you said, Grk101 and HellasHab. If you recall back in 2006, Mega was on 602, ERT on 603, and ANT1 on 605. Maybe ANT1 didn't like it when it was 3rd in line, being that they were on Dish long before ERT and Mega.
  18. Did a little bit of googling and found out there is currently no channel that's occupying 9828. So I don't see why they couldn't put Mega on that channel instead of putting it on 9839 right after the radio stations. It makes no sense not to group it with the other 4 TV channels.
  19. DISH Network Greek TV We are working for a December 5th date. Might be sooner :). Will keep everyone postedNovember 21 at 11:53am Above is what Dish Network posted in response to my question of a launch date via the Dish Network Greek TV page on Facebook.
  20. So they're putting it on channel 9839, right after supersport fm? It's weird to not group it with the other tv channels. I guess 9828 must be taken. It would have been perfect next to ANT1 (9829). They could have put it on 9833, right after Greek Cinema and moved each radio channel by one. Oh well I guess we shouldn't be picky as long as we're getting Mega back. Maybe they'll switch it around at a later date. :tup:
  21. I couldn't agree with you more DKSat, but what I think happend or didn't in this case was the fact that EllasTV being the only MEGA COSMOS provider did not produce the expected results as far as attracting subscribers, much the same as it did work out when the channel moved to DirecTV and later on Home2US.I live in an area with 80 Greek families. Most of those families have been suscribed to DISH NETWORK and never swiched or added DIRECTV, except of course for myself. People can live without MEGA COSMOS, I was without it for the last couple of months and eventually realized that I wasn't missing it. Mega Cosmos had a chance on Directv. When it didn't materialize, they didn't want to admit their mistake and rather than get their pride hurt by returning to Dish, they go to a platform that most people never heard of and also try their luck with an IPTV, a technology that still needs much improving.On a different note, I know we won't see Greek TV HD anytime soon, but does anyone see if providers can change SD here from 480i to 576i like in Europe? ANT1, ERT, & Alpha have figured a way to compress their signal so that alot of the stuff is shown in 16:9 aspect ratio on Dish.
  22. Just found out that someone was me. I had asked the question of a launch date and I was checking the Dish Network Greek TV page on Facebook this morning and noticed that the answer they gave me was exactly the same as you posted on your reply, Grk101. :D
  23. And if you recall from the letter I received, the Greek Elite pkg price would increase from $24.99 to $29.99 on or around December 6th "to provide you with the best content available and to cover increased costs...".Coincidence? I think not.
